There are two functions.
First, is to assure that the cutting head is a set distance from the chuck on the first and 2nd insert.
Second, (in my opinion) is to match the specs as to the proper distance the head (or cutting tip) should be from the chuck. They also keep the small bevel, behind some bit heads, from the chuck/collet. The bevel could end up causing the bit to loosen in the chuck or collet.
I bought my first set from LHR, but from then on, I just went to the hardware store and got some tubing and cut my own.

Well I agree with that and I bought a set from LHR. But there are different sizes in them so does anyone have an idea as to the rhyme or reason for that?

There's two sizes. 1/2 and 1/4 for the two different size bits in full bit set.
